Ono, P.E. <br />Director <br />Neil A. Azevedo <br />Deputy Director <br />DPW believes this road in Mauka Honokaa is not suitable for bike tour activities, <br />considering both highway geometric perspective and its overall suitability for such use. <br />Additionally, residents share this viewpoint, further reinforcing concerns about the road's <br />suitability for bike tours. <br />Therefore, we strongly believe that this road should not be included in the allowable "bike <br />tour" route. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to share our recommendation. Please feel free to reach out if <br />you have any questions, comments, or concerns. <br />Respectfully, <br />Hugh Y. Ono, P.E. <br />Director, Department of Public Works <br />Page ] of l <br />County of Hawai'i is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer <br />
